About Miami Firearms Training

Training Philosophy

Owning a firearm is an American right. However, Miami Firearms Training firmly believes firearms owners are responsible for learning the skills and the laws surrounding that right. The center's instructors help build individuals' confidence by emphasizing safe, proper techniques. Then, they guide students through firearms trainings inspired by real-world situations, so they are comfortable owning, handling, and operating firearms.
